A Warm Welcome

We are delighted you are interested in our school. Catlin Gabel has been at the vanguard of teaching what matters since the school's earliest days. What we do comes down to small class sizes and the relationships students have with their teachers. No one gets lost in the crowd. As we like to say, there is no back row. Our teachers make a point of knowing about each student's learning style, activities, achievements, and disappointments. Nobody sits alone, works in a vacuum, or goes unnoticed.

We look for students who are eager to learn, who will contribute to our community, and who will take advantage of all we have to offer. We welcome young people who want to be part of a creative and vibrant academic, social, and athletic community. We also seek diversity among our students. Every class is made up of a mix of introverts, extroverts, talkers, listeners, boys, girls, scientists, artists, athletes, and mathematicians. We honor ethnic, racial, and economic diversity as well as different learning and social styles.

Our goal in admission is to personally connect you with our school and support your family through the admission process. Exploring the website is a great first step to learning about our programs and people. The next best step is to create an account in our online admission system and schedule a visit. Come see for yourself! We provide campus tours and student visits for all grades September through January.

We look forward to meeting you and getting to know your family. Please contact us any time if you have questions at admission@catlin.edu or 503-297-1894.
